On Season 5, Episode 3 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta we finally met Porsha Williams-Stewart, and the first thing this charitable young thing did as a H’wife was invite fellow cast member Kenya Moore to appear at her charity event.Porsha, a granddaughter of civil rights leader Hosea Williams, raises money for her grandfather’s foundation, Hosea Feed the Hungry, and she want’s everyone to know it.

Even though Hosea died in 1998, the foundation remains in Porsha’s family and helps the homeless in and around Atlanta. According to the foundation’s website, “Since its founding in 1971, Hosea Feed The Hungry and Homeless Food (HFTH), a Christian international aid organization, distributed more than $3.0 billion in food, clothing, medical, educational, toiletries, furniture and cleaning supplies to 16 Georgia counties, three states and to the Philippines, the Ivory Coast and Uganda.”
